Torture is the practice of inflicting severe pain on someone as a punishment either to force them to say something or refrain from doing something.
Articles 21 and 44 of Uganda's Constitution particularly prohibits torture, cruelty, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
Some security operatives have engaged in acts of torture against those they believe to be in opposition to the status quo or in an attempt to squeeze information out of them
Any person who has suffered any form of torture by the security operatives, other than filing a suit against government before the courts of law can equally file a complaint before the human rights commission for remedies like compensation.
You can equally file a writ of habeas corpus against the attorney general for the release of a person detained or incarcerated in an unknown detention facility.
